As usual there is a Bedtime Story Sketch challenge at the end of the party post - this sketch challenge will remain open for one week - so come on, get your best flannelette jammies on and get crafting!

Here are the Challenges:

Challenge 1 - To Die For

We recently got our own custom die program under way and we are keen to see what folks are getting up to so this first challenge is all about WMS Cutting edge dies! Our samples this evening are from Edna and she is using the Gift Card it dies and stamps in this first challenge card.

Entries for this challenge should feature projects that use one or more WMS cutting edge dies. We're really keen to showcase our own dies for this challenge so you will forgive us for limiting entries for this challenge to our own dies.

When to make: Make your project now so that you can be ready to post it to your blog/gallery on the night of the party.

How do I link it up?: On the night of the party, post your project to your blog/gallery and post a direct link to it into the inlinkz tool that will be available on the blog post here on the WMS blog. Grab the Pajama party badge now from the beginning of this post to add to your challenge blog posts when you are ready, this will kelp us to find you in the event of a wobbly link. Links for this challenge will remain open for 24 hours.

What will happen? : After the links close we will choose a random project to win a spot prize of £20GBP ($33USD) store credit!

Challenge 2 - St Patrick's Day Charm

Make a Vintage style project, something charming, with a nod to St Patrick himself. I'm seeing lace, fabric, stitching, all that old world ditzy detailing that screams vintage. It doesn't have to be a card, I'd be delighted to see altered items, scrapbook pages, whatever you wish to show me! We are opening this challenge to everyone and it is not necessary to use WMS for this challenge, but if your stash is St Patrically challenged, we have some St Pat's day Freebies HERE, HERE and HERE. Edna has used the Freebie Shamrock image to great effect on this gorgeous sample!

Challenge 3 - What would Mother do?

Make a card/project in the style of something that your mother would have made! It doesn't have to be stamped! I can almost hear you shouting at me "My mother doesn't make cards!" well that's just fine, maybe she sews? - add some stitching to your project - Maybe she bakes? - Make a tag for some home made treats - Maybe she likes to read? Make a bookmark - see where I am going with this? Edna's sample is a charming gift box, and she takes her floral inspiration from her mum.

Now it was brought home to me that there just might be a few folks who, for one reason or another, find this challenge a little challenging on the mother front, so for anyone who is in need of inspiration form a mother, I have this picture for you. You might get a little something from it. This is a real duck egg that my mum cleaned out and decorated for me a very long time ago. It was not one of the eggs that she was pleased to call her best work and she will be rolling her eyes at me for putting it up here, but it is still my favourite, even though she made more for me as the years went on. It's a little frosty house scene and I absolutely love it. I might just take my inspration from this picture and I invite you to do the same if you have no other ideas that you prefer to use - I see scope for glitter and lots of it folks! :)
